How High The Moon

“HOW HIGH THE MOON” CD & DOWNLOAD AVAILABLE NOW!

Experience the astounding vocals of Matt Alber along with the incredible sounds of London’s Prime Time Big Band in How High The Moon, a recreation of Mel Tormé’s “Swingin’ on the Moon” album from 1960.

Recorded in the historic Aeolian Hall, this album captures the beautiful sounds of Tormé’s iconic jazz style and gives new life to his album which is connected through one theme; The Magical Moon – in all of its moods.

All proceeds from the album directly benefit The El Sistema Aeolian Youth Program of London, Ontario. El Sistema Aeolian provides a free, intensive music program to over 100 students each year. Participants play in an orchestra, sing in a choir and learn valuable social skills.

When producer, Clark Bryan purchased Aeolian Hall in 2004, he had a dream to bring music into the lives of young people by inviting them to work with world-class performers who understand the power of mentoring and community. Clark is proud to call renowned vocalist Matt Alber a member of the family of artists dedicated to collaborating with these bright young stars.

How High The Moon is a new tribute album specially produced to support El Sistema Aeolian. It pays homage to two American Jazz legends, Mel Tormé and Russell Garcia, and features the Prime Time Big Band. Each moment you hear was recorded live on stage as a full ensemble at The Aeolian.
